The offensive launched by Umbert led the army was smoother than that of Flynn. Compared with Flynn, it also carried the banner of the royal family. The banner of Duke Werner could directly convince the nobles to open the city gate to accept them.
Not only is the Principality of Werner one of the eight principal principalities in the kingdom, but due to the influence of more than ten generations of intermarriage, the Werner family has been closely integrated with the blood of the Neville family. It is not a stretch to say that it is a branch of the royal family. However, recovering the lost territory for the king couldn't be more justified.
Umber happily enjoyed the victory after another without fighting, conquering one area after another without any blood. He achieved huge gains so easily, which made Umber hold back his vassals in various ways. The behavior was very angry.
The victory came too easily, and some hot-headed nobles were encouraging Umbert to attack Valence, but Umbert refused mercilessly.
Rather than capturing Valence, Umbert wanted to see the expression on Old Tibes's face when he found out that all his territory had been snatched away by others after a hard work and lost many troops, so that he could vent the bad temper he had accumulated over the years.
This good mood lasted until it came to an abrupt end outside Pulte City.
Thinking that it would be another simple surrender, Amber just sent a messenger to the city to convey his order, asking the city lord to prepare food and rush to the city to welcome him. He was thinking about whether to change in advance and what clothes to wear for the dinner.
Unexpectedly, the messenger returned empty-handed and brought unexpected news.
Berni arrived here with 2000 troops before Amber arrived, and as the royal steward, declared that this place was once again owned by the royal family. Any attack by anyone would be regarded as a declaration of war against the Neville family.
As for Berni himself, Sir Luo Lei of the Principality of Zeon who was traveling with him personally admitted that he had been pardoned of all crimes, so his identity as the royal steward was beyond doubt.
Umber was stunned for a long time before he figured out what was going on, and his lungs almost exploded.Old Tibes had colluded with the rebels to trick him in Shakal, and now he has directly joined forces with the rebels. How can a person have such no limits?
All the nobles were summoned urgently and an impromptu military meeting was held to discuss how to deal with Old Tibes's trick.
However, no one among the nobles agreed with the suggestion of continuing the attack on Pulte.
It is not difficult to see through Old Tibes's trick. The only problem is that as the commander-in-chief of counter-rebellion appointed by the royal family, since he pardoned Berni's crime and reinstated him, Berni's status as royal manager is worthy of his name.
Even if the royal family later rejected the appointment of Old Tibes and appointed another candidate, before that, Berni was the highest representative representing the royal family in governing the entire southern kingdom, and he symbolized the royal family.
Since Berni declared that the attack on Pulte is equivalent to an attack on the royal family, the vassals of the royal family must carefully consider it. If they are really accused of being rebels, then all their previous hard work will be in vain. Yet.
Amber felt a headache. He had suffered from the old Tibes, and of course he knew how cunning this fox was. He just underestimated the extent of his shamelessness, and now he was tricked by him again.
Don't think about continuing the attack. Don't say that the nobles won't do it. Umbert himself doesn't want to take the risk of leaving his mouth behind. But what if he retreats like this and Berni continues to pursue him with the excuse of regaining the lost territory? He can't make a mistake. The place that was easy to grab was given to old Tibbs for nothing.
In a dilemma, Umber had no choice but to order to stay outside the city and at the same time sent someone to discuss with Flynn.
Flynn arrived quickly.
When Umber received the news, he was surprised to find that Flynn not only came in person, but also brought the army with him.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Amber asked his question, "Are you ready to go to war with the army in the city?"
"Of course not." Flynn decisively corrected Umber's wrong statement. "I want to go to war with the rebels in the city."
"What rebel?" Umber was confused by Flynn.
"Of course it's the rebels led by Berni."
"But his crime has been pardoned by Duke Zeon himself."
"Are the crimes of the rebels something that Duke Zeon can decide to pardon?" Flynn directly refuted Umber's statement. "Berni is His Majesty the King's judge. His crimes can only be judged by His Majesty the King himself. It is not the Duke of Zeon's turn to exercise such rights on behalf of the King."
Amber was speechless for a moment.
Flynn pointed in the direction of the castle and said, "Since Duke Zeon does not have such rights, of course the rebels are still occupying the city. We need to continue the attack and catch them all. We cannot let them continue to confuse Duke Zeon, lest they make a big mistake." "
If Amber realized something, Flynn turned his attention to other nobles.
"An evil man like Berni committed such evil deeds as betraying the king and detaining nobles, and also relied on sweet words to seduce a wise man like Duke Zeon. If he escapes punishment and continues to manage you, then why did we need to send troops in the first place? Conquest, and let you join our coalition at the risk of being liquidated afterwards."
Flynn deliberately emphasized the word "liquidation afterwards", and the nobles soon had a small commotion.
"But if we attack directly without complaining to His Majesty the King, will it be considered as disobeying His Majesty the King?" A nobleman asked.
"Of course not." Flynn replied loudly, "As long as we eliminate the rebels as soon as possible and cut off the source of slander to His Majesty the King, even if His Majesty the King pursues the case later, we cannot blame our good intentions."
Umber couldn't help but remind him, "Duke Zeon's army is also in the city, getting involved with the rebels."
"After capturing the castle, we have plenty of time to identify the rebels or the deceived friendly forces. As long as we cut off the source of everything, Duke Zeon will not continue to be deceived by the slander. I believe he will understand what we are doing. "
Flynn expressed his opinion as implicitly and tactfully as possible. Rather than passively being led away by Old Tibes, it would be better to simply refuse to recognize the identity of the rebels. After destroying Berni, Old Tibes would no longer be able to seize the territory. Excuse, I will slowly start a lawsuit in the future.I believe that as long as the royal family is not stupid, they will not side with Old Tibes in the final decision.
As for the Zeon army in the city, just treat it as accidental damage to friendly forces, which is very common in this era anyway.If Old Tibbs wanted to use the topic to attack the coalition forces, it would be easier to follow his words. Flynn did not think he would be so reckless.
After convincing Umber and the nobles, the coalition forces took action after a day of rest.
When Berni received the news that the coalition forces had begun to attack the city, he was completely confused as to why these nobles suddenly became reckless and reckless. He hurriedly sent an envoy to reiterate that he had been reinstated and that attacking Pulte was a declaration of war on the royal family. .
Flynn met the envoy and told him very directly that they did not recognize that the rebels had been pardoned, so the rebels in the city now had to either open the city and surrender, or wait for the city to be broken and be captured.
When the messenger emphasized that they were pardoned by Duke Zeon himself, Flynn bluntly pointed out that they were all traitors to the king, and they could only be pardoned by the king. The coalition forces would never recognize Duke Zeon's overstepping behavior. Duke Zeon is not convinced and will appeal to His Majesty the King in person in the future. Anyway, the coalition forces in Pulte City must capture it.Medieval White Elf Story
